About Us

Dr. Justin Diamond
DMD, BSc (Dent), BSc
Originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Dr. Diamond earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) and Bachelor of Science in Dentistry (BSc. Dent) from the University of Manitoba.
Dr. Diamond practiced general dentistry, seeing patients of all ages, in Winnipeg prior to moving to Vernon in 2021. Before dentistry, Dr. Diamond worked for 7 years as a Paramedic in central and southern Manitoba. During this time, he earned certifications in Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support and Advanced Trauma Life Support. His experience working in emergency situations gave him the opportunity to thoughtfully treat people in high pressure situations and gave him the skills to help
people who may feel fear, stress, and anxiety while visiting the dentist. Dr. Diamond believes it is a privilege to provide exceptional patient care with a calming approach to his practice.
Joining him here, in the Okanagan, are his wife, Kirsten and golden retriever, Atlas. They fully embrace the west-coast lifestyle by spending time on the lakes, backcountry camping, skiing, and enjoying everything B.C. has to offer.

Dr. Lise Kalinski
DMD
Born and raised in small town Saskatchewan, Lise graduated from the University of Saskatchewan in 1995 and has been part of the Vernon community ever since. Lise’s passion is on COMPLETE HEALTH and educating her clients on the mouth-body life connection and the full systemic role dentistry plays.
Lise is passionate about sleep breath disorders and facial growth and development and found out years ago that airway is key. “If we are not breathing properly in sleep and while awake, our bodies do not grow balanced and our overall health suffers for it.” Lise has made an enduring commitment to learning and growing.
When Lise isn’t at the clinic, she is exploring her love of art, tending to her flower gardens, practicing yoga, and all things health conscious. She is a beekeeper and honey maker, a huge fan of DIY crafts and loves spending quality time with her family and friends. Lise’s family life includes her two adult boys her husband of 30+ years.
